Our goal is to increase student access to, persistence in, progress through, and completion of postsecondary education by supporting technologies that can improve specific academic outcomes for students in developmental education, adult education, gateway science and math courses, introductory composition courses, and lifelong learning programs.
The program will incubate disruptive new technologies, support proof of concept pilots, and derive new research insights that can inform and support legislative action.
